DVANCED RECORDING
Number of frames in
bracketing series
Frame counter
When using exposure compensation (p. 41), the bracketing series will be made in
relation to the compensated exposure. Under extreme conditions, one of the bracketed
exposures may be inaccurate because it is outside the exposure control range of the
camera.
The remaining number of frames in the bracket series is
displayed on the monitor next to the bracketing
indicator. If the memory is filled or the shutter button is
released before the series has completed, the camera
will reset and the entire bracket must be made again. If
the red low-battery indicator appears, the bracketing
drive mode is disabled. The flash cannot be used with
the bracketing drive mode.
The order of the bracket series is normal exposure, underexposure, and overexposure.
The exposure bracket can be made in 0.3 or 0.5 Ev increments. The larger the number,
the greater the difference in exposure between the images in the bracketed series.

WHAT IS AN EV?
Ev stands for exposure value. A change
of one Ev adjusts the exposure
calculated by the camera by a factor of
two.
